[ISSEI'S POV]
On the day of the decisive battle.
"I'm ready."
I'm getting fired up in my room.
Right now, it's 10 o'clock at night. The decisive battle will start in two hours, exactly at 12am.
Today our job as a Devil is off. We went home straight after school. That's because we may end up wasting our stamina.
We plan to meet up at the club room 30 minutes prior to the match, so I can only stay here for about 90 minutes. But still, I feel the most relaxed here in my own room. So I want to stay here as long as I can.
If I go there, I will feel nervous whether I like it or not. Ah, I feel more nervous than the time I was waiting for my entrance exam results to our academy...
I'm wearing my uniform. I thought this would be the most fitting clothing for this. Rather, should I prepare clothing for battle purposes? When I asked that to Buchou,
"If my group has a uniform, then it has to be the uniform of Kuou Academy. We are the members of the Occult Research Club, after all."
Buchou replied like that to me with a smile.
That's why my battle uniform will be my school uniform. Well, if I were doing martial arts, I could have prepared a dougi.
There are lots of banana peels near me. I ate all of them already, and that technique that I have been practicing ever since camp is almost completed.
I can do this. I can do this. My new ultimate technique. Thanks to Sebas-san, I am also stronger than before.
KNOCK KNOCK
Someone knocks on the door. Huh? Who is it?
"Ise, may I come in?"
"Yeah, sure."
I was shocked to see it was Arthur-san. No matter how I see him. He is on a level of his own. And I hate it. In fact, I hate all the handsome men. They are the only one who got all the chicks. Like, I feel like Buchou loves him and even Akeno-san. It's not fair. This bastard would get a harem before me.
I won't allow that; I will become strong and become a harem king.
"Feels like you are thinking something rude about me." Arthur said.
"N-Nothing like that. I was just nervous about my first rating game."
Didn't want him to beat me to a pulp. While I do hate him for his looks, I won't deny that he was good help for Buchou.
Buchou has explained to me what type of place The great tomb of Nazarick and its ruler, Ancient One—if all Buchou said was true, Arthur-san would be the only one who is kind. Even then, Old Man Sebes beat me half to death. But the maid...oh, the maid. I have never seen such beautiful ladies in my life. I would have peeked at them, but I don't want to lose my life. I feel like they will kill me. That ancient one-guy is so lucky, and I also hate him; he is already a harem king. I heard from Buchou that that guy is the biggest playboy in the supernatural world.
No, fair. But I do want to meet him; I want to ask him what his secret is. Then I would become the biggest Harem King. Ha...ha...ha.
"What's with that creepy smile, you idiot?" Arthur-san said as he punched me in the head.
"Can't man even think? Why did you come here?" I said,
This bastard's punch hurts.
"I am here to talk to you before you go to the Rating Game, obviously." Arthur-san said.
"Talk to me? About what?" I said. Didn't we all discussthe plan and everything? Is there something I missed?
"You see, your sacred gear has a state called balance breaker. While in the training, I thought you would be able to awaken Ddraig, and he would explain this feature, but sadly you didn't awaken him." Arthur-san said.
Ddraig? That's the first time I hear that name.
"Ddraig? Who is he?" I asked.
"He is the dragon that is responsible for the creation of your Sacred Gear, the boosted gear, but since you haven't awakened him, your percentage of defeating Riser is reduced, but with the group's current strength, it is still possible, but I want to make the possibility 100 percent. That's why I want to help you achieve Balance Breaker." Arthur-san said.
The only thing I understood from his speech was that he will help me win the rating. And that was enough.
"What do I need to do?" I asked. Hearing me, I felt that he smiled a little and took my arms, which have sacred gear on.
Then he closes his eyes for a moment. The Sacred Gear started to glow green before it died down.
"There. Completed." Arthur-san said.
"How can I activate this balance breaker state?" I ask.
"You know how to activate it when the situation calls. Don't worry." He said.
Does he love riddles or what? Can't he at least give a straight answer? When I became strong. I will give you a punch in the head like you gave before.
